Here is the full progression of the song, translated to capture the emotional depth of the lyrics written by Anand Bakshi.

Original: Kaun kehta hai mohabbat mein marte hain log
Translation:
Who says that in love, people only die in vain?

• ST: "The moonlight is agonizing... Either make the moon hazy, or let this night not end."
• BT: "Either smudge the moon’s bright crest / Or let this night sink into a sweet, endless rest."
• Why better: "Smudge the crest" is a creative visual for "dhundhla" (hazy). "Let this night not end" is a common phrase. "Sink into a sweet, endless rest" uses doobey (sink) correctly and adds a euphoric, romantic closure.
